  • The (In)Elegant Truth: Marie Kuipers on Reclaiming Your Narrative
    Mar 24 2026

    Sai’s Newsletter is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.

    In this episode of The Mind of Sai Marie, I sit down with author Marie Kuipers to pull back the curtain on her provocative new memoir, We’re All Mad Here.

    We often try to curate a perfect legacy, but Marie argues that our most inelegant moments are where the real transformation happens. We dive deep into the process of turning personal chaos into a written work of art, the weight of public vulnerability, and why “madness” is often just another word for authenticity.

    Whether you are a writer, a seeker, or someone navigating your own complex story, this episode is a reminder that you have the right to own your truth—no matter how messy it gets.

    Inside this episode:

    * The Catalyst: What sparked the journey to write an (in)elegant memoir.

    * Unmasking: Breaking through the fear of what others think.

    * The Release: Navigating the emotional landscape of sharing your life with the world.

    Order the Book:

    You can find Marie’s memoir, We’re All Mad Here: Right Here We’re All Mad Here” on Amazon

  • The Vanity of Virtue: When 'Activism' Is Just a Brand Strategy
    Mar 20 2026

    In this episode, Sai strips back the pretty filters and the vanity tags to look at the hollow core of performative activism. Dive into the “Look at Me” tactics used by privileged creators who treat advocacy like a transaction—dropping donations to mask a pattern of abusive behavior and exclusionary networking.

    We discuss the “authenticity gap” that exists when someone’s public persona is built on “virtue signaling” while their private actions cause stress, burnout, and a lack of support for the activists actually doing the work.

    True colors always bleed through the most expensive donations.

    Join us as we draw a hard line in the sand: integrity isn’t a commodity, and character can’t be bought.
